It would have been at the *lowest* point, which wasn't specified - 5" for
4-cylinder CB roadster and GT. The V8 exhaust was a problem which was why
it always had the jacked-up cross-member and rear spring mounting points,
said to give it an extra 1/2", but still only managed 4 1/4". These same
points were later used later on all RB cars, and together with spring
changes gave an extra 1 1/2". My RB V8 was down to 3 1/2" before I replaced
the front springs, up to a shade under 4 1/2" after. Before replacing the
front springs on my CB roadster the clearance from the rear edge of the
cross-member was 5 1/2", after 6 5/8" but has settled a bit since then.
With a GT it is probably easier to measure the overall height - 4ft 1 3/4" -
and work it out from there if yours is lower than it should be or whether
the whole car is lower.
